 # Vegetation map #
-The vegetaion map (PFTmap.nc) can be constant or updated annually. Use the option VEGET_UPDATE=0Y for constant vegetaion map and VEGET_UPDATE=1Y to update annually the vegetation map. Note that in previous versions of ORCHIDEE up to revision 2718 on the trunk, including _v5 configurations, the vegetation map was updated in the end of the year with the map for the next coming year. In newer versions and all _v6 configurations, the vegetation map is updated the first day of the year.

-For constant vegetation map, set in orchidee.card (or sechiba.card) VEGET_UPDATE=0Y and set in [InitialStateFiles] the PFTmap.nc file you want to use for the simulation. Note that for constant vegetation map, the vegetation will be read from the restart file. Only if it is not found in the restart file, then the file PFTmap.nc will be read. 
+For constant vegetation map, set in orchidee.card (or sechiba.card) VEGET_UPDATE=0Y and set in [!InitialStateFiles] the PFTmap.nc file you want to use for the simulation.

-If you want to update annually (VEGET_UPDATE=1Y) the vegetation map (in forced or coupled mode) you must add the following lines in COMP/orchidee.card:
+To update annually the vegetation map set in orchidee.card (or sechiba.card) VEGET_UPDATE=1Y and set :
+ * for _v6 configurations and newer ORCHIDEE trunk from revision 2718:
+{{{
+[BoundaryFiles]
+List=  (${R_BC}/SRF/${config_UserChoices_TagName}/PFTmap_1850to2005_AR5_LUHa.rc2/PFTmap_IPCC_${year}.nc, PFTmap.nc)
+}}}
+
+
+ * for _v5 configurations or offline with ORCHIDEE trunk or tag older than revision 2718, with monthly period length(note that here we use year_p1 to have the next coming year as the file is read in december for the next coming year):
 {{{
 [SmoothFiles]
 List=(${R_BC}/SRF/${config_UserChoices_TagName}/PFTmap_1850to2005_AR5_LUHa.rc2/PFTmap_IPCC_${year_p1}.nc, PFTmap.nc, 12:12:)
 }}}
+
+ * for ORCHIDEE offline trunk or tag older than revision 2718 on the trunk with yearly period length(note for this case you can not have PFTmap.nc also in the [!InitialStateFiles] section:
+{{{
+[BoundaryFiles]
+List=  (${R_BC}/SRF/${config_UserChoices_TagName}/PFTmap_1850to2005_AR5_LUHa.rc2/PFTmap_IPCC_${year_p1}.nc, PFTmap.nc)
+}}}
